Two days apart… we had snow and sun.
It was a nice change to have both but so very strange.
Boots and coats and hot coffee warmed us one day.
Everything white with temperatures of winter.
Then everything turned sunny with temperatures of spring.
No coats needed and we found ourselves wanting iced lemonade.
Changes like this come into our lives each day
each week
perhaps even each month.
Just as dramatic as this weeks weather.
I call them life altering or life changing moments.
In an instant…something is changed.
The question and the challenge for us is:
when the changes come
and they will come
will we be ready for them?

What a great comparison…The weather can change in a day, and so can life. The more secure our relationship with Christ is, the better we can handle the life-changing days because we are already "grounded" with Him. When we know where to turn in the good times, we won't hesitate to turn to Him in the bad. And He will always be there!
Great post!
In Christ,

What a contrast! God is all about sweet surprises, isn't He? 🙂
I sat outside today, enjoying the breeze and the sun and the green grass. It was so difficult to believe that same yard had been buried under inches of snow just a few weeks before.
I've come to see abrupt changes as God's hand palpably intersecting our path and turning us…"This is the way. Walk in it." Makes me look at them with anticipation rather than trepidation.

God calls us to change – doesn't He?! The weather and seasons remind us. It's so nice to know others think about change the same way.
I try my best, and yet surprise myself by how unpliable I really am.
